In piix4_probe(), the piix4 adapter will be registered in:

i2c_add_adapter()
Based on the probed device type, piix4_add_adapters_sb800() or single
piix4_add_adapter() will be called.
For the former case, piix4_adapter_count is set as the number of adapters,
while for antoher case it is not set and kept default *zero*.
When piix4 is removed, piix4_remove() removes the adapters added in
piix4_probe(), basing on the piix4_adapter_count value.
Because the count is zero for the single adapter case, the adapter won't
be removed and makes the sources allocated for adapter leaked, such as
the i2c client and device.
These sources can still be accessed by i2c or bus and cause problems.
An easily reproduced case is that if a new adapter is registered, i2c
will get the leaked adapter and try to call smbus_algorithm, which was
already freed:

Fix this problem by correctly set piix4_adapter_count for the single
adapter path so the adapter can be normally removed in piix4_remove().

Nice catch, and sorry for introducing this bug in the first place.
I'm not fully happy with your fix though.

Fundamentally, you want to set piix4_adapter_count to 1. You use ++
based on the assumption that piix4_adapter_count is 0 initially. While
this is true upon loading the driver, it would no longer be true is an
adapter has already been registered and then unregistered without
unloading the driver. This could happen if the SMBus controller is
hot-plugged/unplugged (I am not aware of this happening in the real
world, to be honest) or if the system owner manually unbinds then
rebinds the device to the i2c-piix4 driver (something a kernel
developer could legitimately do to exercise or otherwise test the
probing and removal code paths of the driver).
Thanks for your review and advice!
You are right that piix4_adapter_count should be set to 1.
Had sent v2 to fix it.
Best,
Chen
So I think that the following sequence would cause piix4_adapter_count
to grow beyond PIIX4_MAX_ADAPTERS with your patch applied (adjust the
PCI device bus location according to your system), which in turn would
result in an array overrun in piix4_remove():
# for n in `seq 1 8` ; do echo "0000:00:14.0" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/piix4_smbus/unbind ; echo "0000:00:14.0" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/piix4_smbus/bind ; done
For this reason, I am asking that you explicitly set
piix4_adapter_count to 1 instead of incrementing it.
Thanks,
